Chapter 626: Taboo
Shen Sanye's marriage has now become a hot topic among the people of Hui County. The Shen family has made a generous move for this marriage, and they have already let it go, and they will open a five-day flowing water banquet from the wedding day, and anyone can come to eat, and there will be unlimited food and drink within five days.
The Shen family has always been a "good person", and the name of goodness has always been talked about. Shen Sanye is also a military attache of the sixth rank of the imperial court, and taking this opportunity to establish a relationship with the Shen family is something that many people are planning. The marriage of the Shen family has naturally become even more "fragrant", and those who got the wedding card were very happy, and those who didn't get it tried their best to blend in with the people who went to congratulate and watch the ceremony.
Under these various calculations and the extravagance of supporting the scene, no one talked about the bride's shabby background, she was still a woman of different races, married in the man's house, and there was no mother's family to support the scene, and even the dowry was not prepared, and the porcelain bottles, silk and satin, fields and real estate written on the dowry list were all prepared by Shen Sanye, just so that the poor bride would not become a laughing stock in the eyes of people.
Of course, how the Shen family negotiated internally, outsiders didn't know.
As soon as the second day dawned, the Shen family began to get busy. The big red silk has been hung for a long time, and the shiny gold sprinkled double happiness red letters can be seen everywhere. The maids and servants wore festive new clothes, and the little stewards were also in good spirits, dressed in stretches, and followed to the gate early to welcome the guests.
Li Xin got up late, and when she cleaned up, Ah Xiudu had already arrived.
When he came back yesterday, Guan Wen asked people to talk to Ah Xiu.
Ah Xiu sat next to Li Xin and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is going to give birth, and I am going to go this way." β
Li Xin sighed: "I don't want to come, but it's not good not to go." I'm afraid that if it happens at the wedding banquet, it will be a shame. β
Ah Xiu smiled: "It's okay, when the time comes, my sister-in-law will take two chopsticks and come back." Mrs. Shen's sister-in-law is not unfamiliar, your situation is special, and Mrs. Shen will not criticize your sister-in-law. β
Of course Li Xin knew this truth, and touched her stomach, she only hoped that the child would not come to make trouble at this time.
Ready, Guan Wen helped Li Xin into the carriage, Ah Xiu followed, and several people went to Shen's house.
Compared with the pomp and circumstance of Shen Siye's marriage, Shen Sanye's family affairs are more solemn. If Shen Siye's marriage is made of silver, then Shen Sanye's marriage is the supremacy of momentum. Li Xin can be sure that the money spent by Shen Sanye on marriage is not more than that spent on Shen Siye's marriage, but Shen Sanye's marriage is more revealing of an indescribable heritage. Maybe because Shen Sanye is a military attachΓ©, the people around him all look solemn, even on such a happy day, the muscles on his face are not relaxed, and it is really scary to look at.
Entering the hall and taking a seat, Ah Xiu accompanied Li Xin to eat a small snack, Guan Wen went to give gifts, and went to say hello to the groom, Shen Siye and others.
This means that he has been here, and he has brought his wife, and there is nothing rude about it.
Guan Wen said to Shen Siye: "The inner person is about to give birth, we won't stay long, and I will send her back after a banquet." β
Shen Siye hurriedly said: "Oh, I forgot about this stubble, I didn't think it through." Sister-in-law is alright? Okay, you can just go first later, and you don't need to come over to say hello, just say hello to the porter and let the porter inform me. β
Guan Wen smiled and nodded, Shen Siye sent him back to his seat, and he also politely saluted Li Xin and called her sister-in-law.
This is really a world of difference from the gentleman who intercepted Li Xin halfway and flirted with him.
Li Xin didn't have much contact with Shen Siye, and only nodded lightly. Shen Siye also shared a lot of things today, so he was naturally very busy, and after greeting Guan Wen and Li Xin, he went to work again.
"Fourth Master Shen looks more than a little steady." Li Xin said thoughtfully: "The ruffian spirit that used to be completely gone. If I hadn't known him before, I wouldn't have believed it. β
Guan Wen said with a smile: "He didn't grow up before, but now he is older and more stable, and change is common." β
Speaking of Shen Siye, Li Xin couldn't help but think of his wife An Xuan. Coupled with the previous letter from Guan Zhicheng and Aunt Cui's return, I just felt that this matter was very inappropriate.
ββ¦β¦ If I'm not mistaken, counting the days, Mrs. Shen Si should have already given birth, right? Li Xin frowned: "At that time, she asked me to come to Shen Mansion, I remember that she was older than me, and I was about to give birth, so it didn't make sense that she hadn't given birth yet." β
Guan Wen only nodded.
Li Xin saw that he didn't want to say more, which was even more strange.
"You got close to Fourth Master Shen, and he didn't tell you about it?" Li Xin was suspicious: "But the strange thing is that there doesn't seem to be any news from the Shen Mansion......"
Guan Wen paused, looked around, and said, "I'll talk to you about this matter when I go back, and beware of others listening to this matter in the Shen Mansion." β
Li Xin nodded hurriedly.
When Li Xin came here today, she actually wanted to see the blonde-haired and blue-eyed interracial woman in Ah Xiu's mouth. Shen Sanye is guarding the border in Youzhou, that place is a bitter cold place, and the race of this alien woman should be from Russia. Li Xin didn't know about the changes of the nation, but she was still very excited to see a "foreigner" in this ancient period.
It's just that Li Xin is wrong, when a big family marries, it is impossible for the bride to show it to foreign guests, and the bride is covered with a red hijab!
If she wants to see it, she can only wait for the ceremony to be completed, the groom picks the bride's hijab in the new house, and she, as the lady of the ceremony, takes a look at it with the woman in the Shen family's inner house.
But looking at her belly, Li Xin could only sigh.
Forget it, wait for the woman...... She had heard Ah Xiu say the name, and it seemed to be ...... Natasha? When Natasha officially becomes the third wife of the Shen family, she may still have the opportunity to meet her. Of course, if Shen Sanye took Shen San after marriage, she would have no chance......
I have to say that the child in her belly is really very calm, Li Xin left the table halfway through eating, Ah Xiu sent Li Xin back to the shop in silence, and Guan Wen drove smoothly.
It just so happened that Guan Wen had something to deal with, so Guan Wen instructed Ah Xiu to take good care of Li Xin, so he hurried away.
Ah Xiu has been silent since Shen Sanye and Natasha entered the lobby with red silk, and her eyes were slightly lowered. Li Xin couldn't see her expression clearly, but she also knew that she was probably not very comfortable in her heart.
This may indeed be about love, but it is also possible to feel sad when you see the person you once liked getting married.
Li Xin is not good at persuading Ah Xiu, but she knows that Ah Xiu is a strong and tenacious girl, and she is sad for a while, but she will still work hard and face life very positively.
Li Xin had no doubts.
Sure enough, Ah Xiu let go of this matter after being busy, and chatted with Li Xin: "...... I just heard my sister-in-law tell my eldest brother about Mrs. Shen Si, what's wrong with her? β
Ah Xiu is more insightful than Ah Mei. Because An Xuan's matter involved Guan Zhicheng, almost everyone who made trouble with the Guan family knew about it, but they knew it to a different extent. Ah Mei only knew that Guan Zhicheng hooked up with the daughter of the deep boudoir, but Ah Xiu also knew that An Xuan was now the third wife of the Shen family because she had been in and out of the Shen Mansion.
Coupled with Aunt Cui's affairs, Ah Xiu naturally paid more attention to the things between these people.
Li Xin raked her hair uncomfortably and said, "She is also pregnant, and she should have given birth to a child when she calculates the time." I didn't seem to see her today, nor did I hear the news from the Shen family that Mrs. Shen had a child...... So I thought it was a little strange, so I asked your eldest brother. Your eldest brother said that it was not good to say much in the Shen family, and he would mention it when he came back. He's busy at the moment, so naturally it's hard to mention. Ask him when he comes back. β
Ah Xiu frowned: "What's so bad about having a baby?" Unless the child was not born, or was born without support. Otherwise, there is nothing to avoid. β
Li Xin was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect this stubble.
"This ......" Li Xin sat down: "Ah Xiu, is it possible?" β
Ah Xiu pursed her lips: "It stands to reason that this is the case, but there is no rumor among the servants, which is a little strange." Ah Xiu said: "The Shen Mansion is not mourning, which means that Mrs. Shen is fine." But sister-in-law, you said that she should have given birth, but there was no rumor, and she didn't show up, which is a little incomprehensible. It is unlikely that there will always be some words from the servants, and no gossip will be heard. β
Li Xin rubbed the corners of his forehead and said, "It's really nerve-wracking to think about this kind of thing." Okay, then I'll have to wait for your eldest brother to come back and ask him. β
Guan Wen was busy until the evening, and when he came back, Ah Xiu had already returned to the medical center. After a hurried meal, Guan Wen said to Li Xin: "There is a problem over there in the winery, but fortunately, it has been solved at this time." β
Li Xin nodded and said, "I don't know how to help you with these things." β
"You, don't worry about this, it's important to take good care of the child in your belly."
Guan Wen touched Li Xin's stomach: "Baby, why haven't you come out yet?" Mother's belly is so good? Hurry up and let Daddy hug me too. β
Li Xin snorted and laughed, and pushed Guan Wen and said, "It's been a busy day, hurry up and wash and rest, it's still so improper." β
Guan Wen responded, hurriedly took a shower, dried his head, and came back to see Li Xin and others who had fallen asleep.
Carefully placed Li Xin on the bed, and the movements were very light, but Li Xin still woke up.
"Okay?" Li Xin whispered, "Hurry up and rest." β
Guan Wen nodded, Li Xin moved in, and said, "By the way, what's wrong with Mrs. Shen's fourth?" β
Guan Wen suddenly paused, and then said in a low voice: "I'll tell you when you have a baby." Now speaking of this...... Not so good. β
Li Xinton felt strange: "What do you mean by saying that this thing is not good now?" Didn't you say you'd come back and tell me when you were in the Shen Mansion during the day? The voice is soft and glutinous, and it is sleepy.
Guan Wen hesitated and said: "Saying this makes you sad, I'll tell you when the child is born." β
Guan Wen hugged Li Xin: "Sleep in peace." β
Li Xin still had to ask again, but the sleepiness was indeed surging, his mouth opened, and the next moment he fell into the sweet fragrance.
So in the middle of the night, Li Xin's labor pain attack simply made the husband and wife defenseless. Li Xin screamed in his sleep, Guan Wen fell asleep lightly, and immediately woke up, hurriedly sat up and looked at Li Xin, and subconsciously rubbed Li Xin's arms and legs.
He thought that Li Xin had leg cramps in the middle of the night like he had for a while before.
Li Xin suddenly grabbed Guan Wen's arm and forced himself to take two breaths: "Awen, I, I seem to be about to give birth." β
